Another Company Recalls Poisoned Heparin From China

Oh boy! More contaminated Heparin, just what we wanted!

Yep another recall of contaminated Heparin with ingredients from China! B. Braun Medical Inc. has recalled its Heparin products in the US and Canada. These contaminated drugs join the Heparin already recalled by Baxter Pharmaceuticals last week.

The US FDA has announced that it has identified the mysterious substance contaminating some lots of the recalled blood-thinner heparin sold by Baxter International Inc. It is a compound known as over-sulfated chondroitin sulfate which is much cheaper than heparin. The safety of millions was sacrificed on the altar of profit. Time to start really inspecting anything from China, REALLY!

About Me

I have been a political activist since the early 1970's and I am an active educator presenting topics related to alternative sexuality, a filmmaker, author and marketing professional...and a Christian who tries to live out my faith. Sound like a strange combination? Perhaps, but I am a firm believer that living an honest open life is both the way to happiness and to changing the world.
My articles appear on a semi-regular basis on Q-Texas and Leatherati.
Currently I am exploring erotic fiction in my serialized story,...The Bohemians. It is intended for adults, so remember that when reading it. Enjoy!
